These are all genuine South Pacific goods that are mine or my folks. Enjoy :)

I have given the prices I paid for some stuff in Aussie $$. Remember it would be even cheaper for you US people, something like AUS$1.00 = US$0.75

First, my haul from my recent cruise (phone for size reference)

Doll from Vanuatu. Soon to find a home on my dashboard :)

Stone carving from Vanuatu. $10

Carved mask from Fiji. $25

Tapa cloth map, Fiji $10

Carved club and cannibal fork from Fiji. $90 together. The club

The fork. That little ball is carved in and free floating.

Detail of the ball

Detail of the end. 2 turtles

My Valentines Day present ($60) Vanuatu


My folks stuff from New Zealand holiday (I wasnt into tiki then. I got dibs on this though)

My folks stuff from their Fiji trip (more dibs)

Theyre not into tiki, but just like cultural stuff. They also have stuff from China, Africa etc. from their holidays.
